So i took my logosol mill over to Dan for a play this week. We had a few problems getting the levels exact and Dan hopefully will post a picture of the buried treasure in the timber. :thumbup1:

 

I'll get a picture up in a second.

 

thats real sweet ian

i would like to have a go at redwood with the 076 and the alaskan

 

Got a few bits if you fancy a trip up here?:001_smile:

 

 

Mr Humphries, the mycelial felts go up to at least 30ft, possibly more, I'll have a look at the higher timber when I get to it. Also, on the main log I posted pictures of earlier in the thread, there was not only the white, active felts, but also some greyed, powdery felt, as though it was the inactive, decaying remains of armillaria. If thats possible?!

Ok then, can you guess what it is?

 

 

Pulley, shackle, eye bolt. All inside 4" of wood, at approx 30ft above the ground. The eye bolt undid and amazingly the shackle still works. Didn't really notice cutting the ally of the sheave, other than the saw got a bit jumpy, not the usual iron nail feeling/noise though. It did surprisingly little damage to the chain. Sadly the stone I found today wasn't the same, but that's another story. :sneaky2:

 

Last pic, return of the trolley! I even discovered yesterday, it's possible to unload with pallet tines:thumbup1:

 

Burrell, anytime, just drop me a pm. I wont be getting the majority milled until April/May time I shouldn't think.

AMAZING IMAGES DAN!...LOVE THE CHAINSAW MODIFICATION TYPE THINGY:thumbup:

 

Cheers mate, that's the bar clamp for Ian's logosol. It runs on the black rail in the first pic, then has a depth setter and edge guide similar to an alaskan mini mill. Quite a piece of kit!

Looks like its made a good job, what's it going to be used for once its dried. Are you going to air dry it or put it in a kiln?

 

It'll be air dried. Then some will be a benchy/table affair, some will be cladding, one piece is going to be squared with the alaskan into a bench with a feature, one that I did another thread on will become a castle for my nephews, and the rest I havent yet decided. Possibly try some shingles out of the offcuts, just as a tester
